submission
Submissions for the 2024 PDX Pop Now vol.21 Compilation are Closed! Thank you for the amazing music & thank you for your brilliant contributions!
So what’s next?
After receiving all of the submissions, songs are anonymously evaluated by the 100+ volunteers on the PDX Pop Now! Listening Committee, as well as the PDX Pop Now! Board of Directors. We will send you an email in mid-March letting you know whether or not your song has been selected.
At that time, if you’ve been selected, we’ll be in touch about paperwork, high-quality audio files for mastering, and other info we may need.
